    This is one of Nigella lawson's recipe and I was crazy to try this recipe as soon as I saw that. This chocolate has a little salty taste with some crunch from the chocolate wafers and a little nutty taste from the roasted peanuts. This one was a total heaven and you will get lost each time you bite in to it. I modified this recipe as per my taste.
    So here you go to the step by step recipe with pictures..
    Recipe Source: Nigella lawson
    Ingrediants:
    Dark Chocolate Chips-200 gms ( I used a total 300 gms of Semi Sweet Dark Chocolate Chips)
    Milk Chocolate Chips-100 gms
    Roasted Unsalted Peanuts-250 gms
    Honey-4 tblspn
    Kitkat / Wafer Covered with Chocolate- 100 gms ( I used two of  those 10 rs packet)
    Butter-125 gms
    Salt - ¼  tsp
    Method:
    In a mixing bowl add peanuts, broken kitkat, salt and mix well.Set this aside for a moment.
    Take chocolate chips, butter, honey in a sauce pan and heat it gently till melted.
    Now add the peanut mixture in the melted chocolate and mix well till combined.
    Put this in a tin foil( I lined my tin with plastic wrap / cling film) and spread evenly.
    Chill this in the fridge for 2 hours. Now remove it and cut into small pieces.
    Please keep this refrigerated till ready to serve..

      Hi
      I have always loved Nigella since she is seen on Indian Television..
      But never dared to try her recipes..
      Thanks for your inspiration for trying her recipes.. I will try this one for sure...
      One question.. Where do you get your raw material i.e chocolate chips from I stay in Mumbai and which brand as they are not easily available .. Is the butter used Amul Butter?
